Live Poll: Directors on an Impossible Mission

When Tom Cruise began the Mission: Impossible films, he went in a different direction than he ever had before. This was the first time he had ever appeared in sequels. Also, as he said in an interview, "I began producing the films with the goal that a different director with his own vision would make each one." After making five M:I with five disparate directors, perhaps Cruise feels that he completed his goal, as for the first time a director will be making a second film in the series. Christopher McQuarrie, who made the fifth film, is also directing the sixth installment.

Based on their entire careers, which of the first five M:I directors do you think has had the best career?

Carrie is also a career's highlight for De Palma, a critically-acclaimed horror classic with two Oscar nominated performances. And even De Palma's failures had style... so I would vote for him anytime.

I don't get the option: "should be ashamed of". I would pick Brad Brid, but wouldn't think he should be ashamed of 'Tomorrowland'. I did like that movie. If I pick that option, I would agree, that 'Tomorrowland' is shaming stuff. I don't think so, even if I would pick Bird for the main matter.
